I really liked the narrative of this story, its an adventure story with a little bit of mystery thrown in when Nolan Sackett falls for a damsel in distress and helps her strike out into the desert to recover the long lost gold of her deceased relative. The catch is that there are other angry people with guns also pursuing said treasure trove.I love L'Amour's descriptions and how he has actually been everywhere he writes about. The only thing I didn't like about this book was how generic Nolan Sackett was. If you had a cardboard cutout for 'generic western hero' the skills and personality of Nolan Sackett would do nothing to upset that expectation. Other than that, really liked it.6/10
